OUR KARMA AND VEDIC ASTROLOGY

From the beginning of our civilization, people have monitored the movements of planets and have found certain patterns to understand them. According to sages and the rishis of the Vedic time, astrology is actually related with our karma. According to our old Vedic script Brahat Parasara, Hora Shastras,"The God has created nine planets, the Nava Grahas, to the living beings which give result due to our karmas. He takes responsibility as the auspicious form of the Grahas (planets) to destroy the demons and to sustain the divine beings."

The great Sages then has described us the eternal science of astrology and effect of the planets on the destiny of living beings. This effect is the fountain head of Vedic astrology. It is the Ramayana of this ancient subject and is an essential study for both student and practitioner.

It would take a lifetime to understand the astrological rules. And indeed, it is doubtful if one would ever leading it, because the true mastery of astrology can only be skilled by one, who has excelled the three gunas, the ego, and the limitation of human thought processes. The entire study of astrology depends upon our karmic destiny and the fluctuations of our time-based existence in this world. If we are not firmly attached to the stability of divine truth, then we can fluctuate and can face the unpredictability of our own minds.

Astrologically the time of birth defines our progressive experience in this world according to the temporal disposition of the planets at birth time. The planets operate as a guide from the typical world of the nature as they represent our sanskars, the mental imitations created from our own past actions. They specify our capacities, good affluences, state of health and disease, as well as the shocks we are bound to experience.

A well-trained astrologer can determine the timing of these effects in the natal chart and can predicts all our current and future situation according to that we can take precaution to minimise the bad effects of planets. Planets have their everlasting meanings and their chronological senses and they deliver their effects according to our karmas. Karma is the total amount of our physical, mental and spiritual meanings what we do and what we experience. The world goes on because there is a role of free will allocated to human beings.

Where does astrology works in, deal with destiny? So there can be a conflict between astrologically believes and in free will. How can we put an emphasis on both if they are mutually contradictory?
Actually astrology is based on the connection between cause and effect. If one is affected with any planetary moment then obviously there must be a cause previous it. Thus, if any good or bad event happens today, there must be a cause for it, if that cause is appreciable or not appreciable.

Few functions or Karmas give an immediate result. Still some give results after a long time period and also some karma can take several years or decades (or even longer) to happen. If you believe in the law of cause and effect, then the feel of one's birth and the following opportunities, cannot be a matter of mere chance. This takes us to a belief in birth and rebirth. Karmas done in one birth can visible sometime in a later birth. The past karmas produce limitations for us because they yield certain results, which influence our future karmas. We do have a free will, but within the limitations prescribed by the results of our past actions. Karmas in fact manufacture destiny.

An astrologer after studying the complete horoscope of an affected person, can suggest you which of the results from the past karmas can be overcome, and which cannot be overcome and, therefore, have to be suffered. Your karma is like a missile fired; it can or cannot be defused by a counter-missile, depending upon the relative strength of the two.

So at the end we can say past karmas are not in our hand to handle but in this life we can control our doings so that we can make our life more peaceful and successful. Take care of your beloved ones and all the humanity. But still if you are facing problems due to the incorrect and inauspicious planet, Its high time you should consult an expert astrologer, so that he can suggest you to overcome the bad effects of your planetary movements and make your life more contented. Have faith on Vedic Astrology and seek the help of an expert astrologer, he can be your good friend.
